The neurofibroma in oral cavity is typically associated with neurofibromatosis. The solitary neurofibroma is commonly observed in skin. It is relatively rare in oral cavity and usually observed in the tongue, buccal mucosa, and vestibule. The rare types of solitary neurofibromas have been reported as a case report and they were in the inferior alveolar nerve, infratemporal fossa, maxilla, and palatal ginviva. In our hospital, the presented case was the first case as reported as solitary neurofibroma in the oral cavity. The prognosis after excision and the review of literatures were presented.
